• an announcement will be published as soon as the company, or any of its subsidiaries, has acquired securities of a relevant class constituting, on a cumulative basis, 3% of the number of securities of that relevant class in issue prior to the acquisition pursuant to which the aforesaid 3% threshold is reached, and for each 3% in aggregate acquired thereafter, containing full details of such repurchases, such announcement to be published as soon as possible and not later than 08:30 on the business day following the day on which the relevant threshold is reached or exceeded, and the announcement shall comply with the requirements of the JSE Listings Requirements in this regard;

• the number of shares purchased and held by a subsidiary or subsidiaries of the company shall not exceed 10% in aggregate of the number of issued shares in the company at the relevant times;

• in determining the price at which securities issued by the company are acquired by it or any of its subsidiaries in terms of this general authority, the maximum premium at which such securities may be acquired will be 10% of the weighted average of the market value at which such securities are traded on the JSE as determined over the 5 (five) business days immediately preceding the date of repurchase of such securities by the company or any of its subsidiaries. The JSE Limited should be consulted for a ruling if such securities have not been traded during the course of such 5 (five) business day period;

• the company or any of its subsidiaries may not repurchase any securities during a “prohibited period” (as such term is defined in the JSE Listings Requirements), unless they have in place a repurchase programme where the dates and quantities of securities to be traded during the relevant period are fixed (not subject to any variation) and has been submitted to the JSE in writing. The company must instruct an independent third party, which makes its investment decisions in relation to the company’s securities independently of, and uninfluenced by, the issuer, prior to the commencement of the prohibited period to execute the repurchase programme submitted to the JSE;

• any such repurchase is subject to Exchange Control Regulations and approval at that time; and

• a resolution has been passed by the Board of directors authorising the repurchase and confirming that the company and its subsidiaries passed the solvency and liquidity test and that from the time that the test was done there have been no material changes to the financial position of the Group.”

Percentage of voting rights required to pass this special resolution: 75% (seventy-five percent) of the total number of votes, which the shareholders present or represented by proxy at this meeting are entitled to cast, is required.

reason for and effect

The reason for the passing of the above special resolution is to grant the company a general authority in terms of the Companies Act for the acquisition by the company or any of its subsidiaries of securities issued by the company, which authority shall be valid until the earlier of the next Annual General Meeting, or the variation or revocation of such general authority by special resolution by any subsequent general meeting of the company; provided that the general authority shall not extend beyond 15 (fifteen) months from the date of this Annual General Meeting. The passing of this special resolution will have the effect of authorising the company or any of its subsidiaries to acquire securities issued by the company.

directors’ responsibility statement

The directors, whose names are given on pages 20 to 21 of the Integrated Report of which this notice forms part, collectively and individually accept full responsibility for the accuracy of the information pertaining to the above special resolution number 1 and certify that to the best of their knowledge and belief there are no facts that have been omitted which would make any statement false or misleading and that all reasonable enquiries to ascertain such facts have been made and that the above special resolution contains all relevant information required by the JSE Listings Requirements.

In the circumstances and in order to, inter alia, ensure that the company’s subsidiaries and other related and inter-related companies and corporations have access to financing and/or financial backing from the company (as opposed to banks) for such purposes, it is necessary to obtain the approval of shareholders, as set out in special resolution number 3.

Sections 44 and 45 of the Companies Act provide, inter alia, that the particular financial assistance must be provided only pursuant to a special resolution of the shareholders, adopted within the previous 2 (two) years, which approved such assistance either for the specific recipient, or generally for a category of potential recipients, and the specific recipient falls within that category, and the Board must be satisfied that:

• immediately after providing the financial assistance, the company would satisfy the solvency and liquidity test; and

• the terms under which the financial assistance is proposed to be given are fair and reasonable to the company.

Section 44 contains an exemption in respect of employee share schemes that satisfy the requirements of section 97 of the Companies Act. To the extent that any of the company’s share or other employee incentive schemes do not satisfy such requirements, financial assistance (as contemplated in section 44) to be provided under such schemes will, inter alia, also require approval by special resolution.

Notice to shareholders of Mpact in terms of section 45(5) of the Companies Act of a resolution passed by the Board authorising Mpact to provide direct or indirect financial assistance to related and inter-related companies and corporations:

• Prior to the delivery of this Notice of Annual General Meeting to the shareholders of the company, the Board adopted a resolution (“Section 45 Board Resolution”) on 1 March 2016 authorising the company to provide, at any time and from time-to-time during the period commencing on the date on which special resolution number 3 is adopted until the date of the next Annual General Meeting of the company, any direct or indirect financial assistance as contemplated in section 45 of the Companies Act to any one or more related or inter-related companies or corporations of the company. The financial assistance will entail loans and any other financial assistance to any of the company’s present or future subsidiaries and/or any other company or corporation that is or becomes related or inter-related to the company or any of its subsidiaries (and/or to any member of such subsidiary or related or inter-related company or corporation) for any purpose or in connection with any matter.

• The Section 45 Board Resolution will be effective only if and to the extent that special resolution number 3 is adopted by the shareholders of the company and the provision of any financial assistance by the company, pursuant to such resolution, will always be subject to the Board being satisfied that: (i) immediately after providing such financial assistance, the company will satisfy the solvency and liquidity test as referred to in section 45(3)(b)(i) of the Companies Act; and (ii) the terms under which the financial assistance is to be given are fair and reasonable to the company as referred to in section 45(3)(b)(ii) of the Companies Act.

• The company hereby provides notice of the Board Resolution to the shareholders of the company.

special resolution number 4: amendment of the company’s Moi

Pursuant to recent amendments to the Listings Requirements and certain legislation applicable to the company, the company determined that it was in the best interests of the company, and in line with best governance practice, to perform a review of its MOI to, inter alia, ensure that its MOI complies with the Listings Requirements and to ensure that any restrictions contained in its MOI are consistent with those applicable in terms of the Companies Act and the Listings Requirements.

“RESOLVED THAT, the company’s MOI be and is hereby amended by:

Special Resolution 4(a)(a) by (i) deleting the definition of ‘Securities Services Act’ at clause xx; (ii) including a new definition of ‘Financial Markets Act’ between the

definitions of ‘Distribution’ and ‘General Meeting’ in the following terms ‘“Financial Markets Act” means the Financial Markets Act, 19 of 2012, as amended or replaced from time to time’; (iii) by updating the numbering in the definitions of the MOI to take into account the changes in 4.a)(i) and 4.a)(ii) and (iii) deleting all references to the ‘Securities Services Act’ in the MOI and replacing such references with the ‘Financial Markets Act’;

Reason for Special Resolution 4(a): The Securities Services Act No. 36 of 2004 (“Securities Services Act”) has been repealed and replaced by the Financial Markets Act, No. 19 of 2012 (“Financial Markets Act”). All references in the MOI to the Securities Services Act consequently must be replaced with references to the Financial Markets Act.

Special Resolution 4(b)(b) substituting clause xxxv of the Interpretation section with the following:

‘xxxv each provision and each sentence and each part of a sentence in this MOI is separate and severable from each other, and to the extent any provision or sentence or part thereof is found to be illegal or unenforceable or inconsistent with or contravenes any provision of the Companies Act and/or the Listings Requirements, or void, such may to that extent only be modified or severed from the MOI, so that the remaining part of that provision or sentence or part thereof, as the case may be, is legal, enforceable or consistent with or does not contravene the Companies Act and/or the Listings Requirements, or is not void;’

Page 10: ADMINISTRATION...General Meeting in terms of section 59(1)(a) of the Companies Act, 71 of 2008, as amended (the “Companies Act”), that the Annual General Meeting of the company,

gOvernance

Reason for Special Resolution 4(b): Special Resolution 4(b) intends to provide flexibility to Mpact to the extent that the Listings Requirements are amended and the provisions of the MOI no longer accord with the Listings Requirements.

Special Resolution 4(c)(c) by inserting as clause xxxvi of the Interpretation section the following (with existing clauses xxxvi and xxxvii becoming clauses xxxvii and

xxxviii respectively):

‘xxxxvi If

(a) any provision of this MOI imposes any obligation or requirement pursuant only to the Listings Requirements, then:

(i) unless the company is a “listed company”, as such term is defined in the Listings Requirements, any such provision shall be deemed not to apply to the company; and

(ii) insofar as the JSE exempts or no longer requires compliance with such obligations or requirements, the obligation shall be deemed to have been complied with;

(b) any provision of this MOI limits, restricts or prohibits any power or authority of the company or the Board pursuant only to the Listings Requirements, then insofar as such limitation, restriction or prohibition is waived, relaxed, repealed or amended by the JSE, the power or authority shall be deemed not to be subject to such limitation, restriction or prohibition to the extent of such waiver, relaxation, repeal or amendment without anything further being required;’

Reason for Special Resolution 4(c): Special Resolution 4(c) is proposed to ensure that to the extent that Mpact ceases to be listed on the JSE or the JSE grants Mpact an exemption from compliance with any provision of the Listings Requirements, Mpact will not be obliged in terms of its MOI to comply in such instance.

Special Resolution 4(d)(d) by deleting reference to ‘section 3.16 of the Listings Requirements’ in clause 3.3.1 and substituting it with ‘section 3.19 of the Listings

Requirements’.

Reason for Special Resolution 4(d): Special Resolution 4(d) is proposed to ensure that the MOI refers to paragraph 3.19 of the Listings Requirements pursuant to amendments to the Listings Requirements which brought about changes to the numbering of paragraph 3 of the Listings Requirements.

Special Resolution 4(e)(e) by deleting clause 7.1 in its entirety and replacing same with the following:

‘7.1 Shareholders of the company in general meeting may authorise the directors, subject to paragraph 7.2. below, to issue unissued equity Securities in the capital of the company from time to time and/or to grant options to subscribe for unissued equity Securities in the capital of the company as the directors in their discretion think fit, provided that such transaction/s has/have been approved by the JSE (if necessary) and comply with the Listings Requirements; however, shareholder approval will not be required in terms of this clause 7.1 for such issue unless it is required in terms of the Listings Requirements or the Companies Act.’

Reason for Special Resolution 4(e): Special Resolution 4(e) is proposed to clarify that shareholder approval will be required for an issuance of securities by Mpact to the extent that shareholder approval is required in terms of the Companies Act or the Listings Requirements.

Special Resolution 4(f)(f) by deleting clause 7.2 in its entirety and replacing same with the following:

‘7.2 Subject to paragraphs 7.1 and 7.4, the Board may resolve to issue shares at any time, but only within the classes and to the extent that those shares have been authorised by or in terms of this MOI.’

Reason for Special Resolution 4(f): Special Resolution 4(f) is proposed to take into account the numbering change as a result of the deletion of clause 7.3 of the MOI (see Special Resolution 4(g) below).

Special Resolution 4(g)(g) by deleting clause 7.3 in its entirety and updating the numbering at clause 7 to take into account such deletion;

Special Resolution 4(g): Special Resolution 4(g) is proposed to remove an erroneous reference to the Companies Act.

Special Resolution 4(h)(h) by deleting clause 8.1.1 in its entirety and replacing same with the following:

‘8.1 Shareholders right of pre-emption on issue of unissued equity Securities of an existing class of equity Securities

8.1.1 In the event that the company proposes to issue any equity Securities (or options over equity Securities) other than (it being understood that each of the issues set out in paragraphs 8.1.1.1 to 8.1.1.6 shall not require shareholders’ approval, or further shareholder approval, as applicable):

8.1.1.1 shares issued in terms of options or conversion rights provided that such options or conversion rights have been previously approved, to the extent necessary; or

8.1.1.2 shares to be held under any share option scheme or share incentive scheme which complies with the provisions of Schedule 14 of the Listings Requirements, provided that such issue of shares was previously approved, to the extent necessary; or

8.1.1.4 shares issued pursuant to a scrip dividend, as contemplated by the Listings Requirements; or

8.1.1.5 shares issued or to be issued as consideration for any assets, corporeal or incorporeal, or for services rendered; or

8.1.1.6 shares issued for cash pursuant to a general or specific approval given by the shareholders in General Meeting,

each shareholder of the company already holding issued equity securities in the class of shares (or options for equity securities) proposed to be issued has the right, before any other person who is not a shareholder of the company of that class of equity securities (or options for equity securities), to be offered, and within the relevant period(s) prescribed by the Companies Act and/or the Listings Requirements of such offer to subscribe for, that number of the equity securities (or options for equity securities) proposed to be issued which in relation to the total number of equity securities (or options for equity securities) proposed to be issued bears the (as close as possible) same ratio (as determined by the Board) as the number of equity securities in that class already registered in the shareholder’s name at the time of such offer bears to the then total number of issued equity Securities (or options for equity securities) in that class, calculated at the time the offer was made. The offer to each of the shareholders(s) concerned shall, in order to be valid, stipulate only the issue price per equity security (or option for equity securities), the number and class of equity securities (or options) which the shareholder concerned is entitled to, and the total number of equity securities (or options for equity securities) proposed to be issued. [para 10.1 of schedule 10 of the Listings Requirements]’

Reason for Special Resolution 4(h): Special Resolution 4(h) is proposed to clarify the instances where shares may not be issued on a pro rata basis and to make the time periods for a pre-emptive offer consistent with the Listings Requirements.

Special Resolution 4(i)(i) by deleting clause 8.1.2 and clauses 8.3 to 8.5 in their entirety;

Reason for Special Resolution 4(i): Special Resolution 4(i) is proposed to align the MOI with the changes to clause 8.1 (see Special Resolution 4(h) above), including as to timing of a pre-emptive offer.

Special Resolution 4(j)(j) by deleting clause 8.2 in its entirety and replacing same with the following:

‘8.2 issue of a new class of equity Securities (options for equity Securities)

The provisions of clause 8.1 will apply mutatis mutandis to an issue of a class of authorised equity securities which have not been issued, based on the percentage voting rights which that shareholder has in relation to the aggregate general voting rights, calculated at the time the offer was made.’

Reason for Special Resolution 4(j): Special Resolution 4(j) is proposed to remove unnecessary wording and to align this with the changes to clause 8.1 (see Special Resolution 4(h) above).

Special Resolution 4(k)(k) by deleting clause 16.7 in its entirety and replacing same with the following:

“16.7 If, on any issue of shares or other Securities, or on any consolidation or sub-division of shares or other Securities, or on any other transaction with the company, shareholders or other securities holders would, but for the provisions of this paragraph, become entitled to fractions of shares or other securities, all such fractional entitlements shall be dealt with in accordance with the provisions of the Listings Requirements.”

Reason for Special Resolution 4(k): Special Resolution 4(k) is proposed to bring the MOI in line with recent amendments made by the JSE to the Listings Requirements with regard to the treatment of fractional entitlements.

Special Resolution 4(l)(l) by deleting clause 16.15 in its entirety and replacing same with the following:

“The Board shall have the power or authority to:

16.15.1.1 approve the issuing of any authorised shares as capitalisation shares; or

16.15.1.2 issue shares of one class as capitalisation shares in respect of shares or another class; or

16.15.1.3 resolve to permit shareholders to elect to receive a cash payment in lieu of a capitalisation share, (as set out in section 47).”

Reason for Special Resolution 4(l): Special Resolution 4(l) is proposed to bring the requirement for authorisation of a capitalisation issue in line with the Companies Act and the Listings Requirements.

Resolution 4(m)(m) by deleting clauses 21.1 and 21.2 in their entirety and replacing same with the following:

‘21.1 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this MOI, the Board shall be entitled to authorise and issue any debt instruments, upon such terms and subject to such conditions, as are not precluded or prohibited by the Companies Act or the Listings Requirements, as it may in its discretion determine. (section 43).

21.2 Notwithstanding paragraph 17.1 above, debt instruments shall not be issued with any special privileges, including attending and voting at General Meetings and the appointment of directors. [para 10.10 of schedule 10 of the Listings Requirements]’

Reason for Special Resolution 4(m): Special Resolution 4(m) is proposed to ensure that directors of Mpact are authorised to issue debt securities, in line with the provisions of the Companies Act, but subject to the restrictions envisaged in the Listings Requirements.

Resolution 4(n)(n) by deleting the words “to be paid to the shareholders of any class in proportion to the number of shares held by them in that class” from

clause 22.4;

Reason for Special Resolution 4(n): Special Resolution 4(n) is proposed to clarify that distribution rights will be dealt with in relation to classes of Shares.

Resolution 4(o)(o) by adding a new clause 22.15 in the following terms:

‘22.15 The provisions of clauses 22.6 to 22.14 shall apply to distributions made to shareholders of a class or classes of shares.’

Reason for Special Resolution 4(o): Special Resolution 4(o) is proposed as a consequence of the amendment contemplated in Special Resolution 4(o).

Resolution 4(p)(p) by deleting the words “and so exercising their votes on the matter” at clause 15.2 of Schedule 2 and the replacement thereof with the

following words

“ For the purposes of this paragraph 15.2 of Schedule 2, any director who is, pursuant to section 75 of the Companies Act or otherwise under this MOI or in law, ineligible to vote on a resolution shall be counted as present for purposes of determining whether a quorum is present for purposes of this clause 15.2.”

Reason for Special Resolution 4(p): Special Resolution 4(p) is proposed to ensure that the MOI is consistent with section 75 of the Companies Act, insofar as same pertains to a quorum for directors’ meetings and to ensure that, notwithstanding that there may be a majority of directors which are conflicted on a particular matter (and who subsequently recuse themselves from the meeting), a quorum can be established to vote upon that matter.

Percentage of voting rights required to pass each of the resolutions set out in 4(a) to 4(p): 75% (seventy-five percent) of the total number of votes, which the shareholders present or represented by proxy at this meeting are entitled to cast, is required.

A complete copy of the revised MOI may be inspected at the company’s registered office,4th Floor, No 3 Melrose Boulevard, Melrose Arch, Johannesburg, during normal business hours from 30 March 2016 up to and including 31 May 2016.

VotinG and proXies A shareholder of the company entitled to attend and vote at the Annual General Meeting is entitled to appoint one or more proxies (who need not be a shareholder of the company) to attend, vote and speak in his/her stead. On a show of hands, every shareholder of the company present in person or represented by proxy shall have one vote only. On a poll, every shareholder of the company present in person or represented by proxy shall have one vote for every share held in the company by such shareholder.

Dematerialised shareholders who have elected own-name registration in the sub-register through a CSDP and who are unable to attend but wish to vote at the Annual General Meeting, should complete and return the attached Form of Proxy and lodge it with the transfer secretaries of the company.

Shareholders who have dematerialised their shares through a CSDP or broker rather than through own-name registration and who wish to attend the Annual General Meeting must instruct their CSDP or broker to issue them with the necessary letter of representation to attend.

If such shareholders are unable to attend, but wish to vote at the Annual General Meeting, they should timeously provide their CSDP or broker with their voting instructions in terms of the custody agreement entered into between that shareholder and his/her CSDP or broker.

Forms of Proxy may also be obtained on request from the company’s registered office. The completed Forms of Proxy must be deposited at, posted or faxed to the transfer secretaries at the address set out on the Form of Proxy attached hereto, and must be received at least 48 hours prior to the meeting.

Any shareholder who completes and lodges a Form of Proxy will nevertheless be entitled to attend and vote in person at the Annual General Meeting should the shareholder subsequently decide to do so.

Shareholders’ rights regarding proxies in terms of section 58 of the Companies Act include, inter alia, to at any time appoint any individual, including an individual who is not a shareholder of that company, as a proxy to participate in, and speak and vote at, a shareholders’ meeting on behalf of the shareholder.

A proxy appointment:

• must be in writing, dated and signed by the shareholder; and

• remains valid for:

– one year after the date on which it was signed; or

– any longer or shorter period expressly set out in the appointment, unless it is revoked in a manner contemplated in section 58(4)(c); or expires earlier as contemplated in section 58(8)(d) of the Companies Act.

Except to the extent that the memorandum of incorporation of the company provides otherwise:

• a shareholder of that company may appoint 2 (two) or more persons concurrently as proxies, and may appoint more than one proxy to exercise voting rights attached to the different securities held by the shareholder;

• a proxy may delegate the proxy’s authority to act on behalf of the shareholder to another person, subject to any restriction set out in the instrument appointing the proxy; and

• a copy of the instrument appointing a proxy must be delivered to the company, or to any other person on behalf of the company, before the proxy exercises any rights of the shareholder at a shareholders’ meeting.

Irrespective of the form of instrument used to appoint a proxy:

• the appointment is suspended at any time and to the extent that the shareholder chooses to act directly and in person in the exercise of any rights as a shareholder;

• the appointment is revocable unless the proxy appointment expressly states otherwise; and

• if the appointment is revocable, a shareholder may revoke the proxy appointment by:

– cancelling it in writing, or making a later inconsistent appointment of a proxy; and

– delivering a copy of the revocation instrument to the proxy and to the company.

The revocation of a proxy appointment constitutes a complete and final cancellation of the proxy’s authority to act on behalf of the shareholder as of the later of the date:

• stated in the revocation instrument, if any; or

• upon which the revocation instrument is delivered to the proxy and the relevant company as required in section 58(4)(c)(ii) of the Companies Act.

Should the instrument appointing a proxy or proxies have been delivered to the relevant company, as long as that appointment remains in effect, any notice that is required by the Companies Act or the relevant company’s MOI to be delivered by such company to the shareholder must be delivered by such company to:

• the shareholder, or

• the proxy or proxies if the shareholder has in writing directed the relevant company to do so and has paid any reasonable fee charged by the company for doing so.

A proxy is entitled to exercise, or abstain from exercising, any voting right of the relevant shareholder without direction, except to the extent that the MOI of the relevant company or the instrument appointing the proxy provide otherwise.

If the company issues an invitation to shareholders to appoint one or more persons named by the company as a proxy, or supply a form of instrument for appointing a proxy:

• such invitation must be sent to every shareholder who is entitled to receive notice of the meeting at which the proxy is intended to be exercised;

• the invitation or Form of Proxy must bear a reasonably prominent summary of the rights established by section 58 of the Companies Act;

• contain adequate space to enable a shareholder to write in the name and, if so desired, an alternative name, of a proxy chosen by the shareholder and provide adequate space for the shareholder to indicate whether the appointed proxy is to vote in favour of or against any resolution or resolutions to be put at the meeting, or abstain from voting;

• the company must not require that the proxy appointment be made irrevocable; and

• the proxy appointment remains valid only until the end of the relevant meeting at which it was intended to be used, unless revoked as contemplated in section 58(5) of the Companies Act.

The practical applications of the aforementioned rights are discussed in the notes to the Form of Proxy attached hereto.
